Germany Schengen visa type D to blue card - travel restrictions on first arrival [closed]
I am Indian, presently resident in Egypt.
I received a German Type D Schengen multiple-entry visa with 7 month's validity, when I applied for the Blue Card work visa.
I am planning to visit Germany for few days and return to Egypt for a month before permanently moving to Germany.
I was informed that, once I arrive in Germany on this visa type, travel is restricted within the Schengen countries or back and forth to your home country. So, in my case, I can't go back to Egypt.
Are these restrictions correct? Will there be issues with the border control officer when I arrive at German Immigration?
